Enjoying the domesticated lifestyle in Southern California

Portobello mushroom sandwiches

These are so tasty, and I get to eat something (practically) vegetarian, while Paco gets to fire up the grill. Win-win.

I use this recipe from The Pioneer Woman, and follow it to a T. The first time that I made it, I thought that two mushrooms per sandwich would be excessive, but it turns out, it’s perfect! I also add a clove or two of minced garlic to the basil-mayo spread. (I usually hate mayo, but in this case, it makes the sandwich.)

Here are the mushrooms on the grill.

Here’s the finished product.

See the little slice of prosciutto in the background? I asked the lady at the deli counter for an extra slice. Guess who it’s for. . .
